Good morning, New York sports fans! Here is your first look at the very busy regional sports scene.
↵Rutgers Vs. Iowa State, 2011 Pinstripe Bowl: Scarlet Knights And Cyclones To Battle At Yankee Stadium: The game kicks off at 3:20 p.m. ET today. Maybe it was a good omen for Rutgers that the school's basketball team defeated No. 10 Florida Thursday night in double overtime.
↵Lakers 99, Knicks 82: Knicks' Offensive Woes Continue, Fall To Lakers: You would not think scoring would be a problem for a Mike D'Antoni team that has Carmelo Anthony and Amare Stoudemire, but it apparently is. The offensive woes could be exposing why the Knicks gambled on Baron Davis and his bad back -- somebody has to orchestrate the offense.
↵Dwight Howard, Magic Dominate Nets, 94-78: New Jersey was no match for Orlando. Howard, incidentally, is getting lots of advice telling him not to come to the Nets.
↵Islanders Vs. Calgary: John Tavares Leads New York To 3-1 Win: The Islanders snapped a three-game losing streak with the victory.
↵Dallas Cowboys (8-7) At New York Giants (8-7): NFC East Title, Playoff Berth On Line: Injury updates, position-by-position breakdowns and more.
↵Jets (8-7) At Dolphins (5-10): New York Must Win, Then Scoreboard Watch: Brandon Marshall says Jets cornerback Darrelle Revis gets Michael Jordan treatment from NFL officials.
